Use Minikube in GitHub Codespace to setup your development environment for Meshery.
Prerequisites
Follow the steps below to install Meshery in your Minikube cluster.
Read through the following considerations prior to deploying Meshery on Minikube.
You can develop and run Meshery in a GitHub Codespace using your choice of tool:
For the best experience, run Codespace in your locally installed IDE. Alternatively, you can
Start the minikube, if not started using the following command:
`minikube start --cpus 4 --memory 4096`
Please allocate cpus based on the machine you selected in the Github codespaces and to check up on your minikube cluster :
`minikube status`
Verify your kubeconfig’s current context.
`kubectl cluster-info`
mesheryctlUse Meshery’s CLI to streamline your connection to your Minikube cluster. Configure Meshery to connect to your Minikube cluster by executing:
`$ mesheryctl system config minikube`
Once configured, execute the following command to start Meshery.
`$ mesheryctl system start`
If you encounter any authentication issues, you can use mesheryctl system login. For more information, click here to learn more.
For detailed instructions on installing Meshery using Helm V3, please refer to the Helm Installation guide.
You may also manually generate and load the kubeconfig file for Meshery to use:
The following configuration yaml will be used by Meshery. Copy and paste the following in your config file :
`apiVersion: v1
clusters:
- cluster:
certificate-authority-data: < cert shortcutted >
server: https://192.168.99.100:8443
name: minikube
contexts:
- context:
cluster: minikube
user: minikube
name: minikube
current-context: minikube
kind: Config
preferences: {}
users:
- name: minikube
user:
client-certificate-data: < cert shortcutted >
client-key-data: < key shortcutted >`
Note: Make sure current-context is set to minikube.
To allow Meshery to auto detect your config file, Run :
`kubectl config view --minify --flatten > config_minikube.yaml`
Meshery should now be connected with your managed Kubernetes instance. Take a look at the Meshery guides for advanced usage tips.
To access Meshery’s UI, please refer to the instruction for detailed guidance.
